There are many voices speaking to you everyday Let’s read
Blessed is the man
Who walks not in the counsel of the ungodly,
Nor stands in the path of sinners,
Nor sits in the seat of the scornful;
But his delight is in the law of the Lord,
And in His law he meditates day and night.
He shall be like a tree
Planted by the rivers of water,
That brings forth its fruit in its season,
Whose leaf also shall not wither;
And whatever he does shall prosper.
We hear talk and chatter everywhere we go. It might be driving in the car listening to the radio, watching Tv, talking to a friend. Listening to a song or to a podcast, reading a book. Places you hang out at. Workplace, home and finally yourself. Yes you do talk to yourself.
All these things influence us and speak to us.
Usually there is a theme to our day. To our thought life. A resounding message that repeats itself over the course of the day.
All these influences can corrupt our thinking.
Discern the Voices
Let’s weed some of these things out.
And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect will of God.
How do we recognize God’s voice?
God’s Voice transforms you
Transform Definition:
make a thorough or dramatic change in the form, appearance, or character of.
Do you want to prove what is that GOOD, ACCEPTABLE and PERFECT WILL of God?
You see what I have to say today is GOOD NEWS (Gospel)
You see I have been charged by God to preach the Gospel… The Good News… The Gospel is the power of God for salvation to everyone who believes
For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ, for it is the power of God to salvation for everyone who believes, for the Jew first and also for the Greek.
Good News of Jesus has power! Power to save to deliver…
The condition is Faith… It is for those who believe.
My question for you today is this.
Do You Believe the Good News?
Or are you stuck in the bad news?
The good news when believed stirs up faith! Faith once activated moves mountains and overcomes the obstacles ahead of us!
For we walk by faith, not by sight.
For we were saved in this hope, but hope that is seen is not hope; for why does one still hope for what he sees?
while we do not look at the things which are seen, but at the things which are not seen. For the things which are seen are temporary, but the things which are not seen are eternal.
